Photo of a male hooded tanager, made by Foek Chin Joe in Suriname in
2005. The female lacks the black cap and has more blue-gray, but has
the same yellow eyes and legs as the male. The hooded tanagers like
the coastal region and can for instance be found in mangroves and on
sand ridges, but also in the Cultuurtuin. More
